They are headlines gleaned from the metropolitan press of the coun- try and the only reason their stirring statements need constant reiteration is that the same newspapers are printing still larger headlines tell- ing of the harrowing doings in Europe. Lifted out of their depressing en- vironment of the war news, the pub- lic would focus their attention on the wondeiful conditions that attend Am- ericans and would realize that pros- perity is assured. Headings like the following are appearing in the newspapers every day in the week: $413,279,000 in Gold Held in New York Banks. $21,000,000 Gold War Slips Into City. U. 8. Leads World in Export Trade. Confidence is Restoring Prosperity. ‘Wheat Market Makes Upturn. Nearly Billion Bushels of Wheat. $6,000,000,000 Gain in U. S. Sales to South America. Value of Auto Exports Doubles in Year. Record Lumber Order Awarded in Chicago. Banks’ Surplus at nghest Yet. Swift Co. Directors Advance Divi- dend. U. S. Entering Era of Prosperity. U. 8. Now Leads Great Britain for World Trade. Half a Million Freight Cars to Handle Crop. And in the Pioneer during the past few weeks have been the following heads in'regard to teh prosperity of this community: Bemidji Banks Show $1,219,000 Deposits in Call Report.

PRESIDENT WILSON PAYS TRIBUTE TO OLD SOLDIERS Only Few Left of Brave Men Who Were Reviewed by Sherman, Sheridan and Others. Note—General Nelson A. Miles, grand marshal of today’s review, who joined President Wilson on ‘the re- viewing stand when he and his es- cort had passed before the executive, write for the United Press this de- scription of the event and tribute to the men who marched.—Editor. By Gen. Nelson A. Miles. (Written for the United Press.) Washington, Sept. 29.-—Washing- ton today looked through the eyes of fifty years ago. Its populace and visitors joined with the nation’s executive in re- viewing the battered blue battalions of the Grand Army of the Republic— all that is left of the stalwart legions 200,000 strong, who marched with youth’s firm step before the White House in review with Sherman, Meade, Sheridan and Hancock at the close of the war that called the army into being. To the Annual Review. Celebrated in the most beautiful capital, among the people of the strongest, most prosperous republic in the world, the 50th annual grand re- view of the Grand Army of the Re- public epitomized and symbolized the spirit of the nation—unity, and mighty influence on all humanity through unborn ages. There in the vanguard of this body, unique and filled with the essence of tragedy and romance, marched the remnants of Logan’s men—the troops from Illinois. ~John A. Logan is dead but can it be I saw his shadow strid- ing on beside them? Few Leaders Left. Few of the handful of old leaders who are left from the days of *61 and ’65 passed here today. Wilson of Delaware, Dodge of Iowa, Brooks of Pennsylvania, and Pennypacker ‘and Sheridan; Osterhaus of Illinois, An! drews of Minnesota, Connor of Maine and Louis Grant who fought with An- drews; Gregg, that grand old Penn- sylvania cavalryman; Hardin of Chi- cago, Nickerson of Somerville, Paine of Massachusetts, Pierce of Michigan, Seward of Albany, Medford of Ore- gon—all still living, but not all here. Their boys trooped by, though, rigid as the dragging chains of time permitted; and with them, in fancy anyhow, if not in fact, their generals Such a tariff should be the mean_sl' not maintain our high-standard of | went marching on before.

Wilson Leads Boys. 2, Far down the line were the boys from Delaware; and still among them was their gallant general, James H. Wilson, 1éader of one of the largest commanda during the Civil war and’ who rendered important service again in the war with Spain. Then there were the Pennsylvania boys, once led by.the youthful gen- eral, George A. Pennypacker, who, still alive, carries in his person two confederate bullets, In this parade of the Grand Army of the Republie, decaying through time though it is, there lie the lines of a wonderful story, a story which few of us in this day of rush and bustle have time to pause and con- template. Outgrowth of Necessity. The Grand Army of the Republic was the‘outgrowth of circumstance. and necessity. Political problems of generntlons standing’ developed into hostilities. The prayer of the people of all sections was that the cup of bitterness might pass, but it was not to be; and the flower of manhood in all sections resorted to arms. Such an army—the remnant of which we see here today—never was and prob- | ably never again will be recruited. A million boys 18 or under and twoi million 21 or under, answered the call to the colors. The great bulk of the army was composed of men under l 25. Theater of War Large. The theater of war extended from the Potomac to the Rio Grande. Through much fighting there were many drawn battles though few de- cisive engagements. Altogether it was a four years’ war of exhaustion in personnel and material that con- tinued until the South was on the verge of bankruptcy. At the close of the war of Americans against Amer- icans there was universal rejoicing in every part of the country, though gloom and sorrow overshadowed many hearts and homes. Become Prominent Men. The terrible, fierce animosity and strong prejudice that' had nctuated| the hearts and nerved the arms of all during the struggle, were buried in | the last entrenchments. The black- mouthed cannon were forever si- lenced. The war drums throbbed no longer and the battle flags were furl- ed; and as the smoke of conflict roll- ed away, the heroes of both armies clasped hands and pledged eternal fidelity and allegiance to their. re- united country. i These young men, who between 61 and ’65 tramped many battleflelds, have been engaged for years in busx» i ness activities or professions; or thesf have become governors, statesmen,; pioneers and home-builders in the mighty west. i Started Humbly. - } This organization, whose 50th ani nual review was seen on Pennsylvania avenue today, was started humbly enough. It has grown and flowered in veneration and glory, and though it will in its proper season die sub+ lime, nothing can avail to erase the spirit and influence from the rippling shadows of the Stars and Stripes.: | Consider the lesson of this demon+ stration. : 3 On the other side of the Atlantig millions of men are engaged in a desperate struggle to destroy each other, devastate vast zones of tsrrl-l‘ tory and bankrupt nations.
